They already did:

• Xbox (1)
• Xbox 360 (=1)
• Xbox One

They are done with “one.”

Now they’re on:

• Xbox Series
• Xbox Plenty
• Xbox Loads

Can you really call it a bombshell when they’re doing it out in the open? And everybody can see they are doing it? And they are in no way trying to hide it or justify their actions?

Egg

You don’t need to argue. You just need to accept that every time you do that you put your life, and the lives of the people around you, in danger. And that’s simply a fact.

I have to laugh at the guide calling itself “complete.”

Yes, it’s got a lot of useful info. Yes, someone reading it can learn a lot about what to do with older computers and what to expect from distros.

But there is so much more that the guide doesn’t cover, haha

I’m a creative. I’ve used InDesign since version 1.0. I’ve built my career with Adobe tools.

Adobe Creative Cloud peaked around ten years ago. Since then, it’s totally jumped the shark. I’m not even talking about the company, just the software and its features.

When I open InDesign, Photoshop, or Illustrator I’m trying to work. It’s software I’ve used for, in some cases, 25 years. My point is, I know it inside and out.

The past few years, every new “feature” gets in the way of my work. Adobe has been changing things that already worked very well, or has added extra steps to do something that used to be easy.

Even worse, Adobe has started to fill its software with notifications that can not be disabled. Invasive blue dots. Invasive blue buttons. Invasive blue overlays that stay visible on the screen even when the software is minimized. Rich tool tips that aren’t disabled by the option to disable rich tool tips.

Adobe has lost me as a devotee. It’s been taken over by venture capital. The company only cares about adoption of new features.

Now, I use it out habit. Because my workplace provides it. Because it’s what folks on my team are used to… but because they’ve come to the ecosystem so late, they only know a fraction of its capabilities.

If Adobe faces demise, I will mourn what if once was. But not what it has become.
